Thi-ro may he a few who regret that
nmonu the theatrical hills announced for
ilus week, there Is nothing of n "legiti
mate" character to entertain the thousands
of visitors who will come to the city. But
from Mrs. Culberson's standpoint, which
Is unquestionably the true one, nothing
could bo better designed to meet the merry
making spirit that will prevail for sever-.il
days to come, than the faroes, the traves
ties and the specialties, booked, at the sev
eral houses.
Tho attractions a!l belong to tho same

"Old lloss" Hoey, Johnny Ifenabaw, the.
"Rush City" cyclone, the "Derby Winner"

ntid they will probably return home "tick

The management of the Gilliss theater
now handsomer and more Imposing than
ever Is to he heartily congratulated on
the promising result of its costly und haz
ardous expetlment, for it Is probable that
the new form of entertainment has come
to stav. The "continuous performance" is
evidently "It." No othor system has over
furnished such a huge amount of legitimate
entertainment at ridiculously low ratea of
admission. The opening bill was surpris
ingly complete. The vaudeville features
were well rounded. The second week's
programme Is a palpable advance on Us
predecessor, and evidences the utmost lib
erality and untiring effort. The bill is
headed by the world-famous Billy P.leo
and his ''Mastodon Minstrels." In this
aggregation of comedians and vocalists aro
live of the greatest of tho original Haverly
minstrels, viz.: Billy Bice, Banks Winter,
Charles Ernest, E.M. Kayne and Burt Mor
ris, in conjunction with sti'-h line artists ns
George Castle, Otis Hlggins, Albert Haw
thorne. Perry Denton, Charles Carruthers,
etc. Then comes that amazing bahy, Gertio
Cochrane, whose astounding mental and
memorizing feats have been aptly termed
"the eighth wonder of tho world;" Lilly
Laurel, the Hnsdtsn singing comedienne;
McClnud and Melvlllo, harpists and danc
ers; the "Grent Stuart." male soprano, und
several others. All these star features will
he seen before and between the acts of
"Passion's Slave." presented by the (!il
Uss stock company, improved and aug
mented. There will be two continuous per
formances dally, without stops, waits or
overtures the matinees from 1 to 5:30. nnd
evening performance's from 7 to 11. Despite
the tremendous list of attractions there
will be no advance In tho prices, which will

of the niece, have nevertheless cnioved its
performance hugely. One prominent re
viewer, who treated It rather loftily In his
paper, admitted privately that It was a
"rattling good show." The Bowery scene
nntl characters give an Impression of real
ity. Mr. William C. Carl, of New York, one
ot the most distinguished of Amerh as
concert organists, wns in the city thp past
week, the guest of Mr. Ctrl Hoffman. Mr.
Carl was to have given a recital In Kansas
City, but the engagement hud to be can
celed on account of conflicting olills-atlons.
The dlstlngui-hid artist had Just returned
from California, where he gave a number
ot recitals, meeting with the most marked
success. He is the organist of the Sec
ond Presbyterian church of New York,
where he has a large chorus of adults, a
boy choir and a professional quartette.
Mr. Hoffman says that he will arrange .1
recital for Mr. Carl in this city at the
earliest date that will be available to the
organist.
John Drew has begun his New York en
gagement this season nl the Empire thea
ter tn Henry Guy Carleton's "That Impru
dent Young Couple," written expressly to
lit him. William Winter wrltis of the pro
duction: "John Drew lias had a fortunate
and prosperous career. Blithe dcseivts 1,1s
sncccfs, for he Is well endowed by nature
with mental capacity, with aptness and
tu-ite of dramatic expression, with sympa
thy and with Intellectual nlmbleness. Sir.
Carlcton has iltted the play to the actor
with patient elaboration ot detail. It Ills
Mr. Drew In merry nnd frolicsome mood,
with happy touches and well cut mantle.
Mr. Dr iv has adde another pouular part
to hi list, while Maud Adams, iiftJelLMoiifi 1
young actress, nas reacneu 11 mgner piano
on the stage thnn she has touched before."
Joseph Brooks, In Chicago, explains that
the theatrical syndicate, which was de
scribed In a daily paper hero recently, I
quite n different thing than that i.-port
led people to suppose. "Jt was publish' d
that the amount of capital subscrlb I was
Jl.is.0,000," says Mr. Brooks. "That was .1
mistake. The uggregatc wealth of those
interested is JI.OTO.OOO. Should it become
necessary, a capita! of $l,t"JO,000 coulu be se
cured. The syndicate is not a trist. I;
is simply 11 combination of managers who
inieim 10 exploit -tars, produce piavs. an
engage In oth-r theatrical enternrls,"-

seaon, has often been compared with I'.ig.

this, Is an event, the facts of which an
mentioned by all European newspaper.
Two years ago im-lrlc-k, while touring in
Italy and gaining many triumphs, nrtiv. 1
at Parma, where puganlnl Is. bulled.
Achilla Pagaiiinl, the son of the great
maestro, lives st Parma, but on m omit
of his Infirmities rarely leave's his upait
ments. Upon hci-lng of the nrrh.il of
Ondrlcek, he nut a request to the liohe
mian, nsklnc that he be good enuiigh to
visit him, as he was curious to know tho
man Who was s-o often placed on a parall 1
with his father. Ondrlcek went immedi
ately to Puganlni's house nnd played a
number of the nvn-ter's compositions. The
sun was deeply nftected and said: "I rec
ounlze the bowing of my poor father."
Enthused by the playing ot Ondri ek,
Acl.ille showed hlin the llttlo Atnatl violin,
on nhlcli his father played at tlm age of
7, nnd presented emdricek with a pirirnlt
and a number of autographs of his father.
Ondrlcek then played Pagnnlnl s grand
concerto and Achilla, lu a paroxysm ot
enthusiasm, Immediately wont by carriage
to the iiiuniclpnlity nf Parma and asked to
have opened for the llrt time since the
celebrated maestro's death, Paaanlnl's
'tomb, so that Ondrlcek might view the
mortal remains. They nt once assltinod
masons to open the case and the body,
which had been embalmed, was found In
tact. Ondrlcek remained there looking at
tho great master for a long time. He is
the only person upon whom that excep.
tlonul honor has evir been conferred.

Chleily to gain an Increase of territory
fur the epread of blavery, this country be
came iovolvnl in a war with Mexico over
th admission of Texas. Although it Is
easy taiough now to see that we needed the
new lands we were to gain by fuivj of
arms, and that without them the proper
Mowlh of tho United Btatis was not pos
sible, it was hard to foresee this linn, What
was plain at that time was that both the
motive and those who were urging

worthy. This Is what Lowell discerned
witli iiis usual keenness, and no one at

war more sharply than he, or mure ef-fietive-ly.
